Deep euectic solvents, low temperature binary ionic melts, constructed from redox active components will be presented. These materials exhibit a strong influence of molecular structure on the resulting electrochemical properties. The interplay between structure and electrochemical function is particularly strong when the electrochemistry is proton-coupled, as hydrogen bonding is a key interaction in these fluid materials. Electrochemical and spectroelectrochemical characterization of organic and inorganic redox species will be discussed, as will metal coordination envrionments in deep eutectic solvents.
